Yup! I posted just to show you that not always will you be understood right!
So little words little trouble. Cool Man.

Getting back to stuff in the car... Great idea on a Camera being in the car. Some of those bad shots would have been classy and the sights we missed would have been photos now.

Camera in the car is a good idea, but have to make sure, its not left on the seats. It should be carefully hidden, so that nobody smashes the windows to get the camera.

[sridhar24]

Most importantly the copy of documents like RC, Insurance, etc.
Then Music is a must, so always carry CDs in car.
Also mobile charger, tissues, etc.
I don't like to stuff the car with other things.

Skoda

Inside the car - beyond the ipod, a couple of small bottles of water, my Akubra hat and a first aid kit in the glove box.

Boot - the mother of an infinity sub, a large bag with - jumper leads, gloves, car wash stuff, some basic tools, compressor and tubeless repair kit, a large umbrella and last but never the least - my golf clubs

a camera is a good thing in the car.i was travelling in nubra valley when a army 207 hit my car and damaged the bumper. when i came to ludhiana the insurance guy was not giving me claim of te radiator saying that it is rusted and old accident luckily i had clicked the snaps at the time of accident and presented the same to them so he had no option but to give me the full claim

I for one cannot keep ANYTHING in the car because it has to be uncluttered inside.

Nothing is kept inside for good - 99% of the time my car is free of everything except the camera and flashlight in the glovebox, the ipod in the centre console and the sonofagun dash polish and a pack of scratch remover tucked away out of sight in the seat-back pockets.

I know one thing for sure, you'll never sit in my car Well, not at least till the kids grow up. But, I like the way yours is. That's how it should be.

His camera actually needs a pick up to move it around, The safari is only a compromise!

I don't like clutter in the cabin so I keep my car care products in the boot's pocket storage compartments.

Inside the cabin:
-Tissue box + Face wipes at times
-Water
-Mobile chargers
-Inverter to charge the laptop on highway runs
-Mint/Gum
-Petrol slip book
-Car papers/manual

[akash_m]

Strange as it sounds , but I always keep a pair of bed matresses in my cielo boot. Guess why? Cos there is no place in my appartment to keep them!

[DCEite]

In my car,
- 2 water bottles
- A pair of extra spectacles
- Umbrella
- MP3 CDs
- An idol with Gayatri Mantra inscribed on it.

[bblost]

I keep just some bare minimum stuff over what was already given my the manufacturer.

3 one litre bottles of water. 1 for the battery(battery), 1 for the wind shield, 1 for cleaning car or shoes if needed.

Umbrella.

WD 40.

My Toolkit.


Remember if you carry a lot of stuff in the car you are wasting fuel and most importantly the horsepower.
